Southern California native Landon Donovan, a retired American soccer player, will discuss his memoir on April 11.

At 5:30 p.m. at the Coronado Performing Arts Center, Donovan will present “Landon Donovan: A Memoir,” which is an unfiltered account of his career, battle with mental health and search for peace beyond the game.

A six-time MLS Cup champion and four-time U.S. Soccer Player of the Year, Donovan remains the all-time assists leader for the U.S. Men’s National Team and is tied for the most international goals scored by an American man. His five World Cup goals make him the highest-scoring American male player in tournament history, and Major League Soccer honored his legacy by naming its MVP award after him.

Registration for the event at adventuresbythebook.com includes a signed book for $29.95 or admission only with no book for $10. The event is a fundraiser for the Friends of the Coronado Public Library.
